WYE GENERAL STORE
Wye River got even better since the owners of city bar Riverland
took over the general store and hired architecture firm Six
Degrees to do a stunning makeover. This dawn-to-late proposition
features great coffee, a fantastic array of bread and pastries
courtesy of baker Pip Hayes (ex-Giant Steps), and a crowd-
pleasing menu from Nigel Pickup (ex-Healesville Hotel) featuring
big breakfasts, artisan pizzas, fish and chips and retro classics.
“T his is the general store with more” .
